Binary file in Zoonavigator

[artempostnikov1]

When I open file in zoonavigator, I see this. Are there any opportunities to change encoding or something like that?

[elkozmon]

Hi! Sure, just click the mode button and pick base64 encoding ;)

[artempostnikov1]

It's not the case I guess

[elkozmon]

The editor should be showing the base64 encoded contents of the binary file, is that not the case? It also allows you to update the file with modified base64 string.

It's serialised python string, could I use my own codec in zoo navigator?

[elkozmon]

No, sorry, that's not possible.

However you can still use the base64 mode like this:

• Copy the base64 string to a file on your computer
• Decode the file using base64 to get the file in binary format
• Make the changes you want to the binary file locally
• Encode the binary file back to base64 string
• Copy-paste the updated base64 string to zoonavigator (make sure base64 mode is still active) and save the changes
